Abstract: The invention describes devices for controlling fluid flow (306), such as valves. The devices may include one or more electroactive polymer transducers (308, 309) with an electroactive polymer (308, 309) that deflects in response to an application of an electric field. The electroactive polymer (308, 309) may be in contact with a fluid where the deflection of the electroactive polymer (308, 309) may be used to change a characteristic of the fluid. Some of the characteristic of the fluid that may be changed include but not limited to, 1) a flow rate, 2) a flow direction, 3) a flow vorticity, 4) a flow momentum, 5) a flow mixing rate, 6) a flow turbulence rate, 7) a flow energy, 8) a flow thermodynamic property. The electroactive polymer (308, 309) may be a portion of a surface of a structure that is immersed in an external fluid flow, such as the surface of an airplane wing or the electroactive polymer (308, 309) may be a portion of a surface of a structure used in an internal flow (306), such as a bounding surface of a fluid conduit (300).

Abstract: The present invention relates to novel flavone C-glycoside derivatives or salts thereof, especially those showing an anti-allergic effect, and compositions containing them. Recently, cases of allergic diseases, especially pollenosis and atopic dermatitis have increased to such a degree that they have become a social problem. Flavones and their glycosides have been reported to have the effect of inhibiting histamine release from mast cells or an immunosuppressive effect and expected for application as allergy therapies. However, most flavones exhibit their effects only at high doses, so that effective compounds at lower doses are highly desired. The present invention provides novel components capable of treating allergic diseases at low doses and compositions containing them.

Abstract: An inter-labium product capable of disintegration in water, fitted to the inter-labium part; and a surface-side sheet for inter-labium product that simultaneously realizes comfortability at wearing of the inter-labium product and capability of water disintegration such that the inter-labium product is disintegrated when thrown in flush water of water closet after use. The surface-side sheet for use in an inter-labium product fitted to the inter-labium part is comprised of hydrophilic fibers composed of single fibers and fibril fibers having fuzzes branched from the surface thereof, wherein at least some of the branched fuzzes link the single fibers and the fibril fibers to each other. Thus, not only can the wet tensile strength be increased but also inter-fibrous bonds are slowly decomposed in the presence of a large amount of water to thereby enable disposal of the inter-labium product in a flush toilet. Furthermore, since no resin is used, the inter-labium product is free from resin leaching to thereby avoid problems, such as itching and skin roughness, caused by the resin leaching. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Time varying images 712 before coded are rearranged in a coding stage into unitary images 722 having the sequence of time stamps DTS 725. A GPS or the like provides position information indicative of the position whereat the respective unitary image of a motion image has been captured. The unitary image and the position information are correlated to one another by setting common time stamps PTS (724 and 723) thereon. When decoding each of blocks of coded and multiplexed data 731 to 735, the position information corresponding to the unitary image is specified. Thereby, the unitary image of the coded motion image and the corresponding position information are correlated to one another, whereby a trajectory of the motion image can be displayed on a map in accordance with the position information.

Abstract: A strapping machine comprises a strap extension, retrieval and pulling unit ( 13 ) comprising in turn a Powered main wheel ( 18 ) around which the strap ( 12 ) winds partially to be moved in both directions. The unit comprises two selectable mechanisms for transmission of movement to the main wheel. The first mechanism causes rotation of the main wheel ( 18 ) at a first speed and an auxiliary traction wheel ( 21 ) which is pressed against the main wheel with interposition of the strap near the strap input zone on the main wheel to effect pulling of the strap. The second mechanism causes rotation in both directions of the main wheel ( 18 ) at a second speed greater than the first to effect extension and retrieval of the strap while the auxiliary traction wheel ( 21 ) is at some distance from the main wheel. A control device ( 50 ) operates alternatively the first or second mechanism to realize in rapid succession extension, retrieval and pulling of the strap.

Abstract: Les lecteurs de disques optiques maintenant raccordables à Internet par exemple les HDD peuvent présenter une capacité de stockage local à laquelle on peut ajouter un contenu postérieur à la production pouvant être téléchargé et stocké localement. Or, il est difficile d'inclure ce contenu additionnel à des menus pour les maintenir à jour et pour qu'ils correspondent aux données actuellement disponibles. Idéalement, le menu devrait refléter les données disponibles, même si certaines parties en sont effacées et d'autres remplacées par exemple par une nouvelle version. A cet effet un concept de 'liste liée' des pages de menu permet de créer une structure dynamique. Le menu comportera donc des pages de base (11) reprises du disque, et des pages additionnelles téléchargées avec le contenu additionnel. Des pages peuvent être réservées par exemple à l'audio, la vidéo ou aux sous-titres. La liste liée est établie par un lien implicite (22,23) reliant chaque page aux pages voisines de numéro supérieur ou inférieur.
